I've been dying to see one of the 20 rooms at Claridge's hotel in London designed by Diane von Furstenberg and finally I found one online at the Times magazine. I love the double headboard effect and the patterned fabric. It's pretty chic and stylish but then again, I didn't doubt that Diane would create anything less. Wonder if the have any vacancies!DVF Home Collection
Usually summer is a quiet time when not much happens but that's not the case this year! There are so many exciting developments in the design world and one of my favorites is Diane von Furstenberg's new home collection. I had the pleasure to see her fabulous collaboration with Springs Global last week and was even treated to a personal tour by Diane herself! So exciting! The DVF Home collection won't hit the stores until January 2011 which is why I can't post photos of everything but I can assure you that there will be something for everyone from bedding and linens to tabletop and bath. The colors and prints were of course inspired by her fashions and the collection has been defined into three categories, Urban, Sun and Country, although the entire collection is mix and match. Soon your home will be just as fashionable as your wardrobe! 
DVF at Home
Diane von Furstenberg just tweeted this morning that she is working hard on her upcoming home line. I can't wait to see it! She has such great style and home around the world so I am wondering if it will reflect her nomadic lifestyle. This news also made me think of her home in Connecticut called Cloudwalk that is beyond gorgeous. I bet Hamish Bowles wishes, as I do, that he had those bookshelves! Enjoy!

Most hotels are owned and run by men. And what do men know about hospitality and housekeeping? Considering that they usually stock their rooms with only five hangers, I'd say not much. So I'm happy to report that some chic ladies are throwing their hats, or maybe I should say hard hats, into the hotel business. First up is former model and now brand ambassador for Roger Vivier, Ines de la Fressange, who plans to open a chic hotel in Paris. Hopefully she'll be able to juggle both jobs since the 18th-century building that will house not only her hotel, but a restaurant and spa, is a stones throw away from Faubourg Saint-Honore. I'm wondering if it will look anything like her pink apartment or like the Roger Vivier boutiques, both pictured here. Furniture designer, Hervé van der Straeten is the partner of Bruno Frisoni, who helms the fashion house, so it will be interesting to see if his pieces make the cut. I, for one, would definitely take advantage of that friends and family discount!Paris isn't the only city getting some hotel help. Fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg has been asked by the venerable 5-star hotel Claridge’s in London to make over 20 of its rooms and suites. She collaborated on the project with interior designer Olivier Gelbsman and they plan to stay true to the historic look of the hotel. While you won't be able to check into Ines' hotel until next year, you should be able to stay with Diane, or at least in her rooms, this June. I bet there will definitely be more than five hangers in their closets and probably really good gift shops too!
